C E When it rains, yeah it rains Dm F we can be so unforgiving, it leaves us unforgiven C E we're the same, we never change Dm it's the reason we're together, F A# just waiting for the weather to pass Chorus: F C A# I've been rolling my days away F C A# can't turn out the light that keeps me awake G F I've been trying to sleep for a while Dm Am there'll be nothing left to talk about A# F and no one left to hear. In a while, Dm Am We'll pour water on these ashes and A# F the walls will disappear C C#dim for a while Dm C G/B A# F We've been caught in the cold light of day Lost our luck You put it down Somewhere for safe keeping So safe, you don’t remember But it’s okay We'll make some more It’s you that I'll be needing Not these books that we’ve been reading too long Chorus Chorus: I’ve been rolling my days away Can't turn out the light that keeps me awake I’ve been trying to sleep I’ve been trying to sleep for a while There'll be nothing left to talk about And no one left to hear In a while We’ll pour water on these ashes And these walls will disappear For a while We’ve been caught in the cold light of day You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm  A#  C  Dm  E  F  G  B  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
